  • In the Little Karoo, South Africa
    ASPECTS OF THE ECOLOGY OF LEOPARDS (PANTHERA PARDUS) IN THE LITTLE KAROO, SOUTH AFRICA A THESIS SUBMITTED IN FULFILMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY OF RHODES UNIVERSITY DEPARTMENT OF ZOOLOGY AND ENTOMOLOGY BY GARETH MANN FEBRUARY 2014 i ABSTRACT ABSTRACT Leopards (Panthera pardus) are the most common large predators, free roaming outside of protected areas across most of South Africa. Leopard persistence is attributed to their tolerance of rugged terrain that is subject to less development pressure, as well as their cryptic behaviour. Nevertheless, existing leopard populations are threatened indirectly by ongoing transformation of natural habitat and directly through hunting and conflict with livestock farmers. Together these threats may further isolate leopards to fragmented areas of core natural habitat. I studied leopard habitat preferences, population density, diet and the attitudes of landowners towards leopards in the Little Karoo, Western Cape, South Africa, an area of mixed land-use that contains elements of three overlapping global biodiversity hotspots. Data were gathered between 2010 and 2012 using camera traps set up at 141 sites over an area of ~3100km2, GPS tracking collars fitted to three male leopards, scat samples (n=76), interviews with landowners (n=53) analysed in combination with geographical information system (GIS) layers. My results reveal that leopards preferred rugged, mountainous terrain of intermediate elevation, avoiding low-lying, open areas where human disturbance was generally greater. Despite relatively un-fragmented habitat within my study area, the leopard population density (0.75 leopards/100km2) was one of the lowest yet recorded in South Africa. This may reflect low prey densities in mountain refuges in addition to historical human persecution in the area.

A multi-level heckprobit estimator is employed in order to capture the influence of various factors at the individual, household and regional level, and we focus on the implications of the presence of pensioners and the unemployment on household composition and structure. Results are consistent with earlier findings that pensions are a key insurance mechanism for cushioning younger household members against adverse labour market conditions in rural South Africa. Hence they explain the propensity by household members to postpone formation of new independent household in order to continue living in multigenerational households.

It was established in line with the provision of the Constitution of the Republic of South Africa (Act No. 108 of 1996), which obligates the NCOP to “ensure that provincial interests are taken into account in the national sphere of government”. The main aim of the NCOP Provincial Week is to: Ensure that provincial delegates to the NCOP keep in touch with developments and challenges facing their provinces; Afford delegates to the NCOP an opportunity to interact with their respective provinces and report on their activities in the NCOP with the aim of obtaining new mandates on issues to be placed on the national agenda; Provide a forum for the exchange and sharing of ideas around service delivery issues and challenges facing the provinces in fulfilling their roles; and Create an opportunity for the NCOP and provinces to work together in seeking solutions and developing new ways to address the challenges facing local government and ensuring that the local government sphere responds adequately to the mandate of delivering services to communities. In light of the above, the NCOP permanent delegates and Members of the WCPP will embark on a NCOP Provincial Visit Week in Kannaland Municipality from 27 – 30 October 2020, as per the attached Programme.

  • Water in the Western Cape Economy
    Water in the Western Cape Economy Report to the WATER RESEARCH COMMISSION by Guy Pegram and Hannah Baleta WRC Report No. 2075/1/13 ISBN 978-1-4312-0517-2 March 2014 Obtainable from Water Research Commission Private Bag X03 Gezina, 0031 [email protected] or download from www.wrc.org.za DISCLAIMER This report has been reviewed by the Water Research Commission (WRC) and approved for publication. Approval does not signify that the contents necessarily reflect the views and policies of the WRC nor does mention of trade names or commercial products constitute endorsement or recommendation for use. © Water Research Commission ii Executive Summary BACKGROUND There is increasing consensus in the international water, scientific and development communities that water scarcity will increase dramatically in many parts of the world in the next 20 to 30 years. This will have significant social, political and economic consequences. Awareness of climate change over the past decade has focused broad attention on water as a key resource under threat. This increasing water scarcity will have effects on agriculture, energy, trade, the environment, national sovereignty and international relations as nations who are water scarce continue to deplete their resources while looking to water rich areas to ensure their long term growth and sustainability. In South Africa, these factors increase the challenge of managing South Africa’s limited water resources to achieve economic and social justice imperatives. Historically, water planning has focused on water resources infrastructure development and operation, supported by demand management initiatives to reconcile water requirements and availability. However, as water resources are increasingly developed and utilised, catchment quantity and quality stress tend to increase.
